Question

For RTI practice, what is the best way for carryover when a child moves to a different school/region and they don't use the same kinds of intervention and the student can fall through the cracks?

Answer

Installing service delivery models across school districts is almost impossible at this time. So, I don't have an answer for you that could assure you that whatever school district that child goes to they are going to be doing something the same as what you did. We are also individually trained. The best, overall, are scripted programs. If you can recommend a scripted program, then what the clinician has picked up in the other school district is also scripted and will have the highest fidelity that we could come up with.

I think also, the idea of making sure that the records that are sent with the child have a commentary about all of the instructional support that child was given. That means making sure that your teachers understand what steps you took and what was involved in trying to implement some of the instructional strategies and that information is stated on the files that travel with the child from one school to the next.


This Ask the Expert was taken from the course entitled: Service Delivery Models: Weighing the Options by Judy Montgomery and Jean Blosser.
